Dashboards and Saddlebags the Destination Magazine™ Issue 013 April 2012 | Page 4

13 We know we are Dashboards # Saddlebags The Destination Magazine and on to something! W hat a great year it has been, and what a exciting start to 2012! The April Issue of Dashboards and Saddlebags Magazine is our Anniversary Issue! Dashboards and Saddlebags Magazine was started with one goal in mind. A desire to find new destinations. With our travels we used to make plans based on destinations we may have seen on TV or other big glossy statewide publications. We found that year after year we were traveling in the same circles over and over again. One trip we decided to do a little more exploring, getting a little further out groove. It was then we realized how sheltered we were, only relying on the major media for our travel plans. We learned that their are many great destinations out there that seem be just waiting for the MotoTourist to drop in and “discover” them. They just have not found that cost effective marketing tool to help them out. It costs a lot of money for a community or destination to advertise in a major publication or purchase air time in a major market. Some folks do the best 4 they can and advertise locally. In most small communities the residents are already spending their money locally. To bring in new money you must look at new markets. Dashboards and Saddlebags Magazine is a Destination Guide to 1000’s of people each month. Our magazine is found in over 25 counties and is a proven draw. MotoTourists watch for Dashboards and Saddlebags Magazine each month. People approach us at any of the dozens of events we attend and ask “is that the new issue?” If y ou a re a bu s i n e s s or destination trying to attract Mo t o To u r i s t s p l e a s e u s e Dashboards and Saddlebags Magazine as your cost effective marketing tool.
